Zulaikha's Last Love

Chapters. 29. Joseph's Action

Two days have passed since Zulaikha dropped the lawsuit, and for two days Defin has always obstructed their divorce proceedings. He also repeatedly meets Zulaikha, but the two girls who are always next to the woman always get in his way.

"step! I have nothing to do with you!" ketus Defin when dealing with Syifa and Sita.

"if Mas wants to meet with Ms. Zulaikha, step over our dead body!" reply Sita did not lose tatus from him.

"you really don't have a conscience, Mas, you can continue to disturb Ms. Zulaikha after what you did to her" said Syifa with eyes that stared intently at Defin.

Defin who originally wanted to pull Sita's body to get out of front of her to undo the intention when he heard Syifa's speech, he looked at the girl sharply.

"are you human or not? even animals know what to do and what not to do!" syifa continued, he turned around and was about to leave the man.

However, his steps came to a halt while he was on the doorstep. "Sir Zulaikha is not home, he is with his lawyer to take care of your divorce. And even if Ms. Zulaikha is here, I won't allow you to meet her!" Syifa continued her footsteps without looking back.

"if only you knew what you were wasting, you would be sorry for a lifetime" murmured Sita and passed after Syifa's move.

Defin is in his current place, he no longer knows what to do and how. Ever since Zulaikha sued for their divorce, her life has been uneasy.

Every night she dreams of Zulaikha being with another man, leaving her terrified and determined to cancel their divorce proceedings.

Elsewhere, Zulaikha was talking to Joseph about the divorce process in a cafe. They are discussing the files that will be supporting material for Zulaikha's lawsuit.

"do you really not want to claim Zulaikha's treasure?" yusuf asked, he felt very surprised when Zulaikha did not want to discuss the matter of gono-gini treasures.

Zulaicha, who was about to answer Joseph's question, was defeated quickly by a woman who sat directly before him, making Zulaikha and Joseph look at the woman strangely.

"sook you, village lady!" sela Agnes who is currently sitting in front of Zulaikha.

"wa'alaikum greetings, good afternoon," Joseph's insinuation to Agnes made the woman take a sharp glance.

"cih, it's kind of sok alim. Just wanted to divorce already sitting alone with a new man," sneered Agnes as she glanced sharply at Joseph.

"humans, if you have a brain, use it. If you don't want to use it, then just throw that brain on an animal out there to think like a human being,"

Zulaicha, again wanting to answer Agnes's words of quick defeat with Joseph's mouth, saw the fluttering of war flags between Joseph and Agnes.

"silence you! I'm not talking to you!" after Agnes, she hated Zulaikha more and more because there were men who defended her.

"so, conclusion. What do you want, woman?" yusuf asked with great emphasis, his finger busy tapping the table as if giving time to Agnes.

"actually who are you? and what's the matter with you?" ketus Agnes, he was surprised because since then the man continued to protect Zulaikha.

"Are you curious about me too?" Joseph pulled the corner of his lips up to form a smile.

"channel, my name is Yusuf Al-Khoir. I am Miss Zulaikha's lawyer for her divorce case with Mr. Defin, "Yusuf mentions her identity completely without anyone being left behind.

"cih, village women like you just pretended to be lawyers of all! you must want to demand Defin's treasure right?" agnes asked as she pushed Zulaikha's shoulder made the woman slightly retreat backwards.

"keep your manners Miss! have you never been taught not to be rude to others?" yusuf exclaimed, he was very unhappy if someone else was acting rudely towards each other.

"Why? don't you know who I am?" Agnes put both her hands on her waist as if to challenge Joseph.

"sorry sir, Buk. What's the matter?" ask the cafe manager.

"sorry if we make a scene sir" said Zulaikha, who has not been given a chance to speak.

"just drive these two! one was a village woman, and the other man didn't know himself!"

Joseph, who was about to advance against Agnes, abandoned his intentions when he saw Zulaikha's hand clutching his wrist tightly, and looked at Zulaikha who was also looking at him.

Zulaikha shook his head to stop what Yusuf was going to do, while the people in the cafe looked increasingly crowded to see what scene would happen next.

"sorry sir, Buk, don't make a fuss at this cafe!" the manager called back, apologized to the other customers and ordered them to return to their seats.

"again, forgive us sir," said Zulaikha, he then grabbed a bag and some files on the table to get out of the cafe.

Joseph who saw Zulaicha go also went out of the place, while Agnes saw their departure with annoyance. And get out of there.

"Zulaikha, wait!" Joseph pulled Zulaikha's hand so that she would stop his footsteps

"are you mad at me?" joseph asked, fearing that Zulaicha might be angry because of what he had said to Agnes.

"I didn't think Mas could act like that" Zulaikha commented that the smile on his face made Joseph look at him sharply.

Deg, Yusuf's heart was pounding so fast. Just this time he saw Zulaikha's sweet and dazzling smile.

Joseph quickly turned his face away before Zulaikha realized what he was feeling, he even forgot to take off the grip of his hand.

Irham who was passing on the road was not accidentally see Zulaikha and Yusuf, he immediately stepped on the brake making Defin jump shocked in the back seat.

"are you crazy, Irham!" defin snapped, his heart pounding very hard because he was surprised by what Irham did.

While Irham was still looking sharply at Zulaikha who was laughing with a man, and also the man's hand was holding Zulaikha's wrist.

Defin who saw Irham busy looking to the side also turned his face, he was very surprised by what he was seeing at the moment.

"Zulaicha!" Defin immediately got out of the car to approach the woman.
